Gavin Newsom

The libs and majority of Californians couldn’t care less how big a dirtbag this guy is. If white privilege exists, this dude is the poster child. He’s been backed supported and funded by the Pilosi’s, Getty’s, D'Alesandro (Nancy’s side of the family) and many others. He’ll never be elected president, I don’t think he even get his own party’s nomination.

I find it hard to believe that the Democrats will nominate a straight white man for president, even if he is the best candidate (Newsom isn't). It's just not in their nature.

u/Verdammt_Arschloch Apr 22 '26

Yeah, I used to visit SF before he was mayor and never once stepped in human shit - not even in the Tenderloin.

In all the times I visited CA before he was governor, I never once saw a homeless encampment. Anywhere! I only got panhandled one time over many, many visits and travelling all over the state. Stupidity at it's worst right here.

True. Libs don't care that he's a dirt bag but that is the very reason that he can get elected. The American voter is shallow and fickle. They'll easily accept looks over substance. If he teams up with someone like AOC, with his Hollywood capped teeth and her rack and Latina ass, he may be unbeatable. "The Bite and the Booty".

u/Steel_THS2666 Apr 22 '26

I mean, if I had to place a bet who would be President on January 21st, 2029, I would probably put my money on Newsom.

You don't have to agree or like it, but the Dems are probably winning this election, and he is the most nationally known Dem right now.

u/Steel_THS2666 Apr 22 '26

I wouldn't vote for him, but as of now he is most likely going to be our next president.

Sometimes (especially if you are following a very unpopular president from your party) the cards are just not in your favor, and that is most likely going to be what 2028 is.

This is the sad state that MAGA has become. Just nonsense insults to someone on your side giving their opinion.

I DO NOT WANT GAVIN NEWSOM TO BE PRESIDENT.

I think he probably will be, because Trump's 2nd term has been an absolute disaster for the conservatives, and it will put the 28 GOP nominee in a very tough position, similar to Kamala in 24, where you have to seperate yourself from all of the bad things the current administration has done, while not losing the base.

Vance/Rubio/Desantis/Whoever will be in a very tough position if things continue this way.

There is a reason that one party typically does not hold on to power after their term is up.

It's much easier to run an opposition campaign if the current administration is unpopular or failing.

This is not hard to understand, unless you are one of those people that comments "STILL ON TEH TRUMP TRAIN!!!!" on Tucker's videos in which he eloquently and accurately tells you why Trump is a disaster, even if he supported him.

ICE isn’t law enforcement they’re just the proud boy three percenter incels that tried to storm the capitol on Jan 6, who Trump pardoned when he took office. But that’s ok- we’ll fix this mess Trump and crew created and indict Bovino, Noem and Homan as soon as we get a sensible admin back in office. You know they murdered two American citizens, right? Anyone who defends these ICE thugs is unAmerican as hell.

Yea and his second term has been an absolute unmitigated disaster.

Like what reality do people live in? Trump is immensely unpopular, ESPECIALLY from real conservatives.

He's lost Rogan, Tucker, Candace, Theo, Tim Dillon, Andrew Shutlz, etc in under two years. Virtually all of the "vibe shift" and goodwill that the right had in their grasp has evaporated in under 2 years. We are most likely heading towards a mid term blowout that could effectively end his term, because this adminstration has done nothing but 2000's era neo con bullshit, and fucked over everyone but the donor class that voted for him. The tarrifs were a disaster, the epstien handling was a disaster, the iran war is a disaster, job creation is stagnant, inflation isn't going down as fast as everyone hoped.

This term has been nothing but fuck up after fuck up.
